Thanks, seems like the dry dock is being flooded, looks like the launch is happening right now.

They say that flooding the dock started at 9 AM, which is exactly 6 hours ago. Considering how the water was only up to the propellors about 2 hours ago, I think it'll be another 2-3 hours before there's enough water for the hull to start floating.

To find the source of a leak?

To find the source of a leak?

Yes, an inspection boat. Normal process to do that.
